RE: Are Base loaded Receiver Antennas OK for fixed Wing??
Well here's where it can get tricky. Since radio waves are similar to ocean waves, being that they rise and fall, it seems really stupid for the antenna to be shorter than the wave itself, causing some to spill over the antenna effectively reducing it's ability to pick up the signal. also, isn't it true that with FM radios, the frequency is varied slightly with the change of control inputs, cause doesn''t FM stand for frequency modulation? I'm not trying to be an ass about this. I'm gonna get myself one of the antennas, but it just got me thinking about how effective they are.
